That alone is a powerful statement. I still hope that the dems can put someone strong in to save the states though Personally, I think this mythologizes him within his cult, but I think their increased craziness over it is going to turn everyone else off Edited July 21 by stawns 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
24K Posted July 21 Share Posted July 21 (edited) 4 minutes ago, bishopshodan said: I said he 'might' be stronger than ever. Do you think his popularity is better or worse these days? Dodging bullets like an oblivious Muhammad Ali is pretty cool. And I think Trump is the worst thing to happen to the states in my lifetime I think it made no difference. Those already never Trump wouldn't be swayed and Trump's base is already with him. You have some that may lean towards him harden toward him but at the same time those that lean against him also move more away from him as it solidify their belief Trump brings chaos. In the end it is a wash. Had he been actually been shot through, he may actually gain more sympathy vote or had the shooter been clearly die hard Dem, then you have people blaming the Dem for political violence. It is a bad ass picture. I have to give him that but I doubt it will sway many just on that especially after knowing it was barely a flesh wound.

If the shooter was clearly MAGA or Dem then it will have a bigger impact. If Trump actually got any significant injury from it, it will still be a huge story. Getting to the bottom of such an improbable failure is the story, and then there are plenty of questions to pose in the aftermath. But apparently it's time to forget & move on!

Her time as a DA had some questionable shit...but also she is A) a woman and B) of colour. Two things that for some out there will be issues. She legit put parents in jail cuz their kids missed school...I am sure that helped them attend more My fave US politician these days is Jasmine Crockett.

I can't say that I know what the day today duties of a Veep are, but I'd say the job itself is indicative of qualification. Remind me, what job Biden had before becoming POTUS?

Solid pick for VP though Gov of Cali is a bigger job than anything Harris has. She is not unqualified but I was responding to the assertion she was the most of all possible options. Compared to other side, even with 4 years experience as Pres, she is by far more qualified than the opposition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
